If it's a WCW themed HOF, why not have the most decorated WCW champion ever? Him, Michaels & Goldberg could all be headliners of HOF 2011

If they do a WCW class then sure he would be great. But if they do the WCW class thing then wouldn't HBK not go in that year. He wasn't in WCW was he?

Him Goldberg, Sting would be a great class headliners of course you need some others that are not so big named to spread it out..

You have to be joking. If WWE is going to do a WCW-themed HOF next year I don't want to see Booker T or Goldberg there at all. You need guys like Stan Hansen, Magnum TA, the Andersons, Tully Blanchard, Vader, Sting, Lex Luger, and Ron Simmons first.

There's no reason to induct him if it was WCW-themed.

i dont see hbk being in the HOF next year. if they were gonna put him in right away they would have just put him in this year like they did with flair. booker t could get inducted but i think he may have strained his ties alittle with wwe during their last negotiations. goldberg is pretty much a lock for next year as he is already in negotiations with wwe. while i believe sting is a great talent i dont think he should ever be in the wwe. the man has never stepped foot in a wwe ring and worked his entire career for the main competition (wcw and tna). i cant think of a single hall of fame caliber guy who has had less to do with wwe. even if they did try to induct him i dont see him even showing up.

WrestleMania is rumoured to be a WCW themed show, I didn't hear anything about the HoF being WCW-themed too. HBK NEEDS to go in next year. Hell, Flair got it the year of his 8,000th retirement match, but then we knew he was losing. They took this year's HBK/Taker match so far that, at least for me, on a few occasions, it really looked HBK was gonna end the streak. He needs to go in next year. He has been so loyal to Vince and co., that this would be the ultimate cap to his career. Would have been to see them come out and surprise him with being the last inductee of this year's class, but next year will suit me just fine.

And if it is a WCW themed HOF, I don't see why HBK would be inducted. That would be cool to see Booker T inducted next year though.

I know HBK deserves it but Id honestly like for them to leave him out of this HOF class, especially if they want to have a WCW themed one. As for who should go in, Booker T is on the list but to me, far down to the bottom. If I was gonna choose (5 Wrestlers, 2 Tag Teams, 1 celebrity, 1 Personal) from WCW/JCP/NWA here's my ideal Class of 2011

-Sting
-Lex Luger
-Magnum TA
-Arn Anderson
-Tully Blanchard

-Road Warriors
-Steiner Brothers

-Ted Turner

-Jim Crockett Jr

Lemme just put this into perspective in my view. I never liked Booker in WWF/WWE. WCW he was great, but when WWE brought him in he didn't shine at all like he did in WCW. In WCW he was great, they put him over well when they put him on his own, especially in like 2000 when he was champ and he had those feuds with Jarrett and Steiner and Russo. But nonethe less in WWF/WWE they never gave him enough drive I guess for a lack of a better term. The King Booker gimmick was HORRIBLE!!! The accent was stupid as can be, you could barely understand him. If it was a WCW themed HoF then yes induct him, regular HoF then no.

Thank you. Booker T was extremely talented. I still to this day do not understand why people fail to see that. Please go watch some of his WCW matches with Benoit or something.. You'll be amazed.
